    Well, you don't run it over with a car - Board feedback and the basic info you confirmed you understood on signup cover this completely.
  • I received PCN that said '32 Failing to drive in the direction showed by the arrow on a blue sign.

    This is no arrow on a blue sign. There is a 'no entrance sign' that I did not notice. I only saw the following signs

    A 32w Was failing to drive in the direction shown by an arrow in a blue sign as shown.

    There is a squire blue signs with an arrow in it facing the other way but it is not possible to get a ticket by seeing it than ignoring it. because if you see it, then you're heading the right way.

    This road is a very nasty one, so many people go down the wrong way that they put a camera to catch people. I would not be surprised if 50% of residents get caught going down here.

    So which way are you meant to drive?
  • You're lucky it's not £100 and three points.

    I drove the wrong way. The PCN said I ignored the arrow on a blue sign. So I am sending back the PCN to ask them what arrow.

    I am not lucky. They could not give points on something like this. I had a good walk down the road. It's a very shoddy one-way road. At the end of the road they have a 20mph sign to show drivers who come the wrong way the correct speed. They also left markings in the middle of the road that one-way roads do not have.

    Oh they could the signage is clear enough in those photos.

    You did ignore them, unless you can show you complied with then or the signage is defective or there's no TRO you'll lose.
